One of the most successful mechanisms to interact with scientists and engineers from industry and other sectors is through the MRSEC-sponsored, quarterly New England Complex Fluids (NECF) workshops developed by Weitz and Fraden. The Harvard MRSEC hosts the December workshop on the last Friday of the Fall MRS meeting to attract an even wider audience, which included undergraduates from our PREM partner Navajo Tech University (lower left). NECF is continuing online during the Covid-19 crisis with over 175 registrants for the 83rd workshop hosted through UMass-Amherst in June 2020.
